Historic mansion in the Scarritt Renaissance District

Beautiful home

This house was beautiful and we really enjoyed our stay. The neighborhood had so many elegant homes. We were safe and happy here. The house was very old, but well furnished. The huge kitchen had anything you could ever need. The beds were comfortable and the numerous antiques were gorgeous!

Really enjoyed the 5 spacious and comfortable bedrooms, all together on the 2nd floor with the laundry room. Kitchen had everything we needed, including spices and a stovetop griddle. Several gems in the house such as the antiques and pocket doors. Only regret is not reading further the welcome binder describing house history, local information and sites/restaurants to experience.

Our family stayed here over Christmas. We had an excellent stay. There were 5 true bedrooms, but a den on the first floor with a futon and a private bathroom, so more like 6 bedrooms. There is also a climate controlled veranda that has access through 2 of the bedrooms, and can be used for sleeping. And another pullout couch in the TV room. The neighborhood is iffy. Beautiful old homes from the 1800s, but many of them are run down. This home is no exception, with a lot to love both inside and outside. Each room was unique and charming. The kitchen area has a commercial sized oven, and adjacent commercial sized fridge and freezer that were unplugged when we arrived. There is also a standard fridge in the kitchen. Large dining room, which was great for our Christmas dinner with 15 people. Over 4 days, most of us didn’t even leave the house. There was so much room to spread out, a wonderful grand piano that my son played frequently, lots of opportunities to play hide and seek, and numerous different sitting areas for great conversation and games. The house did have several quirks and issues. For example, none of the bathrooms had locks. One didn’t even have doors that would shut all the way. There was wallpaper peeling, the dining room chandelier had more than half of its lights out (made it difficult to see), and there were several other obvious maintenance issues. Hand soap and paper towels were provided, but no bathroom toiletries. Kitchen had spices and baking necessities.

Everyone loved being able to experience this beautiful historic mansion with its updated kitchen and bathrooms! Plus the fact that there was an “on sight” manager to promptly respond to our concerns was frosting on the cake!

This was such a great house and well managed! We had more than what we needed and the place was amazing!

A group of 10 retired nurses enjoyed this mansion immensely. We had everything we needed to sleep, cook, and relax. The piano was a special treat. Can’t believe how many times I heard “I love this place”There was plenty of parking space. The manager was most helpful with our questions.

Our stay was amazing. The house is great. It was clean amd spacious. The bedrooms are nice size and the beds are comfortable. Property manager was quick to respond to questions. The neighborhood is quiet. Overall, our stay was great!

Enjoyed the property

We had a great stay at this historic mansion - plenty of space for all of us and we were very comfortable. Kitchen and dining area made it very easy for our large group to share meals and laughs together. Highly recommend!

It was an easy to access place with great amenities. The well stocked kitchen allowed us to host many activities for our daughter’s wedding. We loved our castle and the beautiful decor. I highly recommend this property.

Our overall experience was outstanding. The home is huge and gave plenty of room for people to spread out. The house is really cool. The beds were comfortable. Angela was great. There were no negatives from anyone in our group.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the mansion! It was like a castle to my granddaughters! It was nicely decorated and had beautiful antique furniture and items throughout the house. It was all updated with air conditioning, washer and dryer, full kitchen equipment, pots and pans, dishes, glassware beautiful serving dishes! I even saw a crockpot and roaster in the cabinets. There was both a Keurig and a regular coffee maker. The owner and caretaker were both very friendly and accommodating. I would highly recommend this place for any family gathering!!

Our group stayed at the mansion for a week and it was amazing. The house is huge enough to be a lovely place to relax and for kids and adults to have space to be in the same place. Full kitchen, well-equipped, and clean, well-kept rooms. Ross and Angela were terrific hosts. We had a large group- 14 at max- and it was 100x better than any hotel. Thank you!

This was an amazing place for my family to stay for our vacation to Kansas City! The mansion is beautiful! The kitchen with its huge stove made it easy for us to make delicious big meals for our family of 13. The beds were so comfortable, and all of the places we visited were less than a 15 minute drive. We definitely want to stay here again!

This house was fantastic. Ross was very receptive and respisnsive. Our large group of children and adults from Community of Christ delegation enjoyed the family atmosphere. Thank you. Hope we can use it again next conference. Blessings, peace and love we leave with you.

This house was absolutely beautiful! Such history! We were pleased with the size of the house. We had a four-year-old and two under two years old. We took our own pack 'n' plays and used the tall chairs for the kids. We highly recommend this home for others to stay. Enjoy the history, beauty, and large spaces.

Loved all the space the house has to offer and all the king size beds in every room was great, easy trip into downtown was nice also

We just spent a wonderful long weekend at this big home. We all grew up in a big house. This felt so at home and fit our needs perfectly. There was plenty of room to gather, or go be quiet in smaller rooms. We hosted a dinner for friends in the KC area and the kitchen with all its utensils had all we needed.

We did not realize the Property Manager lived on the 3rd floor of the home, and parked in the driveway. It wasn’t too much of an issue, was just a shock when we arrived and saw the side door was open and there were people working on her private stairwell. Location is a short drive to downtown - do not recommend walking in the neighborhood, although we felt safe enough outside on the property. Beautiful home, very large rooms.

This was a beautiful place to stay and visit where the whole family could be together.

We chose this property as a home base for out of town friends and family for our daughter’s wedding. The home created the perfect space for entertaining, enjoying conversations, relaxing, and staging for the wedding at a close venue. It was perfect in every way and we hope to return.

great old house

The house is fabulous. So much room, great for gatherings.

An amazing experience. The kids loved exploring and the putting green was a huge hit. It was a privilege to stay there

What a wonderful mansion for our family vacation. Plenty of room. Plenty of history!

We had a lot of fun. House was beautiful. Plenty of room.

Ross went above and beyond to make certain we had everything we needed for our Thanksgiving day meal prep. The house is incredible and very unique. It was perfect for what we were looking for.

This property was perfect for our family weekend in KC for the CU/KU football game. Plenty of room and a really cool house.

We had an amazing time. Only thing I wished I knew before hand, was the property manager lives on the 3rd floor. It did not bother us. Just scared the crap out of us when we first got there and heard someone walking around.

10 of us were in town for a convention and the location worked perfectly. Rooms were large and plenty of space to put our things. Kitchen was well stocked for our needs. Had some difficulty with the television but that could have been the result of a storm with strong winds that rolled through. Location was an easy trip to the convention center.

Really unique house, we had a great time!

The pictures of the property don’t prepare you for the size. This place is huge absolutely a mansion. We found we were very close to most everything we wanted to visit. Our visits included the zoo, science center, Hallmark, and The rabbit hole to name a few. Wonderful BBQ at Q39. Great fun in KC.
